Pancake Day is upon us once more! It is one of my favourite days of the year. I love that it is a great excuse to not bother eating a real meal for dinner/tea, but an opportunity to stuff our faces sort of guilt free with yummy sweet and savoury pancakes. I collated a list of my favourite pancake recipes for you to try this Shrove Tuesday.
-
Banana Pancakes
I love these pancakes because you only need two ingredients and they are so easy to make! Not only are they amazing to offer baby during their weaning journey, but the whole family can enjoy them too.
-
Sweet Potato Pancakes
Similar to banana pancakes, this two ingredient recipe makes super healthy pancakes that are great for baby led weaning. What’s more, they taste pretty delicious.
-
Banana and Oat Pancakes
This recipe uses the principle of the simple banana pancake recipe but adds a few more extra ingredients to bulk it up and add a few bits of extra nutrition. Super easy to make and super yummy.
-
Scotch Pancakes
I love traditional scotch pancakes and these ones taste absolutely divine. I would eat these for breakfast every morning if I could. They’re such an easy way to get some extra fruit into your diet as well.
-
Protein Pancakes
These gorgeous looking protein pancakes from Sarah at Run Jump Scrap taste amazing and are super duper healthy. It’s a win-win! See for yourself here. Whenever I make these, I like to use naked whey.
-
Fluffy Pancakes
Fluffy pancakes are my absolute favourite and Kim from OddHogg has a beautiful recipe that has been handed down from her Mum. The great things about these pancakes is you can add whatever type of topping you want and Kim has made a great list. Go and check it out here.
-
Baked Pancake
This baked pancake recipe makes making pancakes so easy, you don’t even need to flip it! Last year I was heavily pregnant and extremely hormonal and threw the frying pan in a rage when I couldn’t flip the pancake. Really could have done with knowing about baked pancakes then! This recipe is baby led weaning friendly, but feel free to add as much sugar as you want, Shrove Tuesday only comes around once a year after all.
-
Nutella Covered Pancakes
Did you know that a pancake has to have baking powder in it, otherwise it is a crepe? No, nor me, until I read I Am Crabstix’s hilarious pancake recipe. WARNING. This recipe is neither baby led weaning nor SW friendly, but it will make you giggle.
What pancakes are you going to try this pancake day? Let me know if you try any of these pancake recipes out today and what you think.
We’ll be having a mix of crepes and scotch pancakes tonight – crepes so that we can have the fun of flipping and scotch because they’re what I was brought up on! Gonna have to try those sweet potato ones as soon as poss, they look delicious!
Thank yoooooooooou
Some yummy ideas here. I think my other half has forgotten so may surprise him later. I can’t have any! Thank god it’s the last day of sugar free feb!!
We are having pancakes for lunch today… It would be rude not to! I am going to make some American pancakes I think. My favs are blueberry buttermilk ones but I haven’t been out for supplies so bog standard ones it is…. May jazz them up with nutella though
Who’d of thought there would be so many types of pancakes?! We’ll be doing the banana and egg pancakes here. Being dairy free and healthy it’s a win win!
Making me hungry just reading this. They all look delicious x
Traditional crepe with ice cream
I wish I had seen these recipes before we did ours tonight, I am pants at scotch pancakes but that one looks easy enough!
Some great recipes thank you for sharing others. We went nuts yesterday and whipped up a batch of sweet ones topped with fruits and a savoury one which was my favourite, quite pleased as I made these from scratch as I normally buy the bottles haha x
I really want pancakes now! I used to make the banana pancakes a lot for my boys when they started weaning. I make some now without sugar – flour, eggs, baking powder, milk, cinnamon and finely grated apple to sweeten.
#KCACOLS
Your version sounds delicious!
These all look yummy but I’ll definitely be trying out the Nutella one for me and the banana one for my son! #KCACOLS
I’m definitely going to be having nutella pancakes on Shrove Tuesday too!
Love all of these! Love pancakes with banana. #KCACOLS
I really love crepes with lemon and sugar or nutella and strawberries. Yum. Sarah #KCACOLS
Ooh nutella and strawberries sound like a great combination.
Thanks for these fab ideas, I’m always looking for new tea time inspiration! #KCACOLS
Pancakes are a great treat to have at tea.
oh these all sound so nice. I love to have nutella on my pancakes #KCACOLS
Nutella and crepes go together like jelly and ice cream!
i LOVE Pancake day! It’s one of my favourite days! I have good memories of my step dad teaching me to make and flip them. We have crepes – with chocolate spread or (my fave) Golden Syrup! #KCACOLS
Ooh Golden Syrup is an amazing topping!
We have banana pancakes a lot, but I think we’re try the banana and oat ones! #kcacols
They’re so yummy!
I love pancakes, didn’t realise there were so many varieties would love to try the banana ones 🙂 #KCACOLS
There are SO many varieties. The banana ones are probably the easiest!
These all sound fantastic, I will be making American style pancakes, maybe with blueberries. Also I make dairy free pancakes for my little boy using coconut milk and spread. We LOVE pancake day 🙂 Thank you for linking up to #KCACOLS and we do hope you can join us again next time. Kate x
Pancake Day is the best isn’t it?!
I still follow a recipe I cut out of a newspaper about 15 years ago! This year I tried Nutella for the first time and it has changed my life! #KCACOLS
Sounds like the newspaper had nailed their recipe. I must admit, until I started weaning, I had no idea how many varieties of pancakes there were.
Some great suggestions there. I always go for the traditional lemon and sugar because I love it so much! My kids like Nutella haha x #kcacols
Who doesn’t love Nutella!
Great recipes! We love pancakes and definitely ate our fair share of them this week haha #KCACOLS
Same! Don’t think I can face another pancake for at least another year!
Yum, yum, and yum some more. I want to try several of these.
